Censoring a hug emoji because your client hasn’t implemented it is much different than censoring the text of a note. Damus doesn’t render markdown, but the words are still there. I’m a bit confused about what you’re arguing for. If relays already censor, and we cannot verify what they’re doing, how does it help to have an open-source client that explicitly tells you they censor? That’s just adding more censorship. At least if I feel like 5 relays are censoring me, I can add 10 more. If I’m censored on Amethyst, I may never know that 1000s of people aren’t seeing my notes, and they also don’t know I even exist.

I have that problem rn. I literally don’t know who can see my posts because of Vitor’s censorship. He doesn’t seem receptive to reason, and seems to condone using reports as a valid means to censor ppl, considering it doesn’t stop spam at all.
